CHICAGO. Sept. 10.
The fate assigned the Anarchists now in
county Jail in this city, has not apparently
awed their adherents who are still enjoying
liberty. Yesterday, as is usual on the Sab
bath, meetings were held in three halls, and
some very lively harrangues were made in
the German and Bohemian languages.
Batlhazar Rau, who was under arrest for
completely in the Haymark,t riot, was the
principal speaker at the Milwaukee Avenue
me- ting. He said that should the MARTYRS
be hanged, certain people who have taken an
important part in the great case would meet
with summary punishment He vert into
details regarding his theory of the men who
are now under sentence of death.
''They class us as fanatics he said. "We
are, and so were the patriots who signed the
declaration which made America a nation
and precipitated war in which right con-
quered might. This war freed Amer ca
from the yoke of oppression; we want to
Our doctrine is that of Patrick Henry, Give
us liberty or give us death"
Other Anarchists spoke in a somewhat diff
ferent tone. They cry for the gore of those
who are to murder Spies ct al.
Justice Magruder has re ceived letter from
the friends of the reds in which the informa-
tion is conveyed that his life is not worth a
straw. State Attorney Grinnell has also re-
ceived threatening missves, but neither of
the recipients are affected by the threats
The police still remain active and the usual
Gordon of specials is maintained about the
Jail. The defendants have but Little to say
regarding their case.

slain during the recent conflict between the
police and the people.

posed that the buckshot fired from the WIZ
dows of the barracks was solely to protect
the policemen then running TO get into the
barracks to escape the stones which were all
the time coming thick and fast upon them.
When the police reached the barracks door
they could not get in as the door was blocked.
He ordered the firing seeing that his own life
and the lives of the constables were endan
gered. Since he became policeman his
life was never in more danger. After the
two rounds of buckshot were fred one round
of ball cartridges were fired. He was sure
that tine shots strnck somebody.

nOunced the witness as a murderer.

RIVERSIDE.

The Portland Packing Company have corn
canning factories at the following places:
Vassalboro, Unity, Skowhegan, North Anson,
Winthrop, Monmouth, Naples, Sebsgo Lake,
Gorham and Fryeburg. This is the sixth
season in Vassalboro, and the amount canned
this season exceeds any other season, and a
better quality of corn. This company will
put uprn this place 100000 cans They here
have about 100 men and women in their en-
play now. Each mans corn as it is hauled
to the factory is kept by itself There are
about thirty huskers that receive four cents a
basket If five pecks, for stripping of the husks.
They receive for their labor on an average,
81 so day One expert in the business said
one day she earned So 80. After the corn is
husked it is taken to the cutters, of which
there are nine. These cutters take
the corn from the cob, about 1000 baskets a
day. 1t is then weighed, valued at 3 cents
for a can of twenty-seven ounces fair
days wook is to put up 1850 cans. Mr. Dill the
gentlemanly and efficient sgent, says the corn
this season is of superior quality, and look
at the corn after it is husked certainly justi-
fies the assertion, for such large, full ears are
good to look at Such an establishment for
the farming community, and the help it EN-.
ploys, is certainly great help to the town.
After the corn season is over, they will COM
mence the canning of apples, of which they
intend to put up 1900 bushels, provided they
can procure the large cans to put the apple
in. And then, after the work is all done, and
the long rows of figures all cast up, an agent
will come with three and one-half bushels of
money and pay it to those that owned the corn,
and to those that help pu, it up. which will be
the most pleasing part of the performance.
